    Wow! This worked on my 2012 Toyota Sienna XLE. The broken piece actually came off while using the drill bit to drill down and prep. for the extractor piece. I didn't think anything was happening; it seemed like no depth was being gained, little slivers of metal shavings kept piling up and I couldn't see any progress. I was about ready to give up, but then the top of the broken piece surfaced. Then I unscrewed it by hand. Woot! THANK YOU, DONNY!

    This video definitely helped me get started, but if you have a drill, bits and a long straight pick tool, you wont need and extractor kit. Drill your hole in the center of the bolt, take the straight pick and a hammer and strike/drive the pick into the top of the bolt, then twist. Mine came right out like it had a head on it. Thats not gonna work in every situation of course, but worth trying first if you have those tools.

    thank you for posting this , it was very helpful. I made the mistake first of trying to drill a hole into the broken antenna base using a regular bit and it tightened it and also made it go WAY down deep, thats when I was like ok I need to watch a video on this and that was the first thing you said not to do haha. anyway it still worked out with the extractor I did put a little oil in and let it sit for a few minutes then used compressed air to blow out any shavings that got in from drilling so they wouldnt further contribute to making it hard to unscrew . its was in pretty snug, had to use pliers with the extractor, but still managed to get it out!!! definitely use a reverse bit!!! lesson learned.

    Made it through the carwash 4 times before the antenna snapped off. I ordered the replacement antenna and will be trying both these options to remove the mast today. Thank you for the video.

    I was researching antennas and found that if you want good reception for both AM and FM, the 31" antenna is the preferred (31" is one-fourth of the 'ten foot radio wavelength' for achieving best radio reception). So, rather than using a "ten-foot antenna" for optimum reception. they came up with 31 inch antenna (1/4 of the 10' wave length). Consider this as well, the professional said in the "fin" antenna, there is a circular antenna - a circular "coil" - that if straightened out, would measure... (want to guess?)... thrity one inches! That is why they work decently... but the shorter, stubby ones will not receive radio signals nearly as well. Sorry to be so long, but I simply reinstalled a 31" on my 2011 Tundra (and I will remove it before I enter the car wash from now on! I loved your video... it helped me a ton! Thanks...

      I hope to fix the antenna on my own. I'm too old to not know how to use a drill.

    I broke two of the reverse drill bits that came with the kit I bought. I tried by regular bit and broke that one. IWhat kind of bit do you need to make this work? A titanium....diamond bit? Something that is stronger than the screw metal? Maybe it comes down to the brand extractor set ? Some are strong and some are crap? How long did it take total driiling to make the hole?

    I might be missing it but I don't see any links for the tools you used. I'm wondering what the tool is called that you used to create the first indentation to keep the bit from moving around because of the jaggedness of the broken part that remained.

    What gel did you use in the beginning? Or does it matter as long as it’s super glue gel?
